The Carmi Lions Club is looking ahead to a busy schedule in 2013. The club met at their regular weekly session Tuesday, Jan. 15 at the Lion's Den in Carmi. President Virgil Clark reminded the members of the benefits and advantages to being involved in the worldwide club.

Lions are members of the world's largest and most active service club organization. They are people who give back to their communities and who are dedicated to finding people in need and meet that need in an efficient and caring way.

Lions are men and women who cherish friendship and fellowship with their club but also feel a close kinship with fellow Lions in more than 180 countries and areas throughout the world.

Lions are also patriotic and are serious about their commitment to humanitarian service but can have a little fun along the way.

Lions are, or could be, "someone just like you."

The Lions Club of Carmi is currently expanding their membership as they move into an exciting time for the club. In addition to the various annual projects the club participates in, they are in the process of researching the possibility of a new Den.

The Lions Club meets each Tuesday at the Den, located on Stewart Street in Carmi at Jaycees Bradshaw Park. The meal is served first at 6:30 p.m. followed by the meeting at 7 p.m.
